Ep. 754 – Michael Broughton (Sports Investment Partners)

Michael Broughton views all sport acquisitions through the lens of driving revenue, and sees various issues with the way that English Premier Football handles its touring mechanisms, especially through the Asian marketplace. Broughton’s outspoken views include the issue of short-term gains by certain football clubs in Asia, without the long-term thinking of actual fan affinity toward those same clubs. Broughton discusses how the Manchester United streaming deal to 165 countries is a long time coming, and may finally open up a dormant era of streaming possibilities throughout the football landscape.
